For the past day, when I see the purple icon in Forum Replies and click on it, it just returns the 404 GOG Bear. Is anyone else noticing this too?

theres been a few threads on this already I think, so yes.

i think (among other things) the forum is long past needing archiving like they did in... 2014?
Both https://www.gog.com/forum/myrecentposts and https://www.gog.com/forum are badly broken here as long as I try to access them with my connected account. If I reload the page a dozen times, it might load successfully once.

On the other hand, https://www.gog.com/forum seems to load OK when I am not connected to my GOG account.

Yup. For a week or so the link to replies returns GOG bear.
GoGbear is hunting me too.
The forum? Broken? I am schocked!
Actually it works for me without any problems (at least it did yesterday). So it seems that this issue is limited to some group of users. But sometimes I encounter sluggish load times of forum pages. There are clearly some problems since the major break down a few weeks ago.

Except for the problem with longer loading times, the forum works.

It's not 404, it's probably a 500 due to timeouts. I have the same, also Word Association Game is almost never working for me.

Haha. You must have become used to it. The whole website is FCKed(tm). From payments, through search, to forums. And it’s not just the last week or two. It’s always been like it. Maybe more over the last couple of weeks, but still nothing unusual.

That could also be :)
the search function is faulty that's right
You are right, everything would be good for an improvement

For me it's broken since ages. If you have lots of games, the replies is broken.

Previous speculation gave some of us veteran users the idea that there's some database blob that's over some size which causes things to break.
I've been seeing Theodore Fourofourski lots of times in the last few weeks, before that, I've hardly ever encountered trouble loading /myrecentposts and /forum, but now it's a constant..
I just checked in Chromium developer tools, and the status code is actually 504, which means "Gateway Timeout".
